preface* 



Charles Town was first laid out in 1672, and a large 
lot at the southeast corner of Broad and Church (sub- 
sequently Meeting) streets was reserved for a church. 

Upon this lot the first St. Philip's Church was erected 
about 1683. But there were probably interments made 
on this lot even before the first church was erected, for 
after the earthquake of 1886, while some workmen 
were repairing the foundations of the present church, 
they discovered a cedar coffin, with the date 1678 and 
the initials J. O. B. studded on the lid with brass tacks. 

In 1711 a new church was commenced upon the site 
occupied by the present St. Philip's, and this church 
having been completed and occupied by the year 1 727, 
the old church was in this latter year taken down, but 
the lot continued to be used as a burying-ground. 

The Act for establishing St. Michael's Parish was 
passed June 14, 1 75 1 , and the church was commenced 
in 1 752, upon the site of the first St. Philip's. 



I wish to express my appreciation of the 
assistance given by Mr. A. S. Salley, Jr., in 
the publication of this book, and to thank all 
who have helped with it in any way, or have 
shown a kindly interest in my work.

To the memory of 

JOHN S. COGDELL, 

a native of South Carolina 

who was born on the 19th September 1778, and died 

on the 25th February 1847. 

In all his relations, he was a man to be cherished 

and loved; 

he united the kindest affections, with the deepest 

sensibility, the purest virtue with the 

strictest honor. 

He sustained, with the greatest urbanity, and with 

spotless integrity, 

many public offices of trust and distinction; 

and he illustrated and graced them by an enlightened 

mind, 

a cultivated taste, and a devotion to the fine arts, 

at once his ornament and his reward. 

He crowned all his high and endearing qualities, 

by the humility and faith of the Christian, and fell asleep, 

in the assurance of awaking to everlasting life, 

thro' the merits of the Redemmer.

Aged 22. 

Of all thy kindred at thy dying day 
Were none to speed thee on thy solemn way; 
Yet ever lives distinct and deeply dear 
Their sight with them of this thy corner here ; 
Each heart so oft hath come and sought and seen 
That Ocean space hath shrunk to naught between, 
And more their own seems now the stranger's shore 
Than when with thee they dwelt on it before. 

Since God doth early break the golden bowl, 
And loose the silver cord that links the soul 
To earth. His will be done. Oh, may he rise 
A chosen vessel to a heavenly prize.

For her my tears shall fall. 
For her my prayers ascend 

To her my cares and toils be given 

Till toils and cares shall end. 
I praise her heavenly ways. 

Her sweet communion and solemn vows 

Her hymns of love and praise.

As a Sister, affectionate: 

As a Friend, Sincere. 

While an Infant she was baptized 

in the Episcopal Church; 

And at the age of Fourteen received the 

Holy Communion. 

Her only hope, for Salvation, was in the 

blood of atonement. 

In the last scenes of her life. She afforded an 

example to the young and to the Aged. 

When she expired, it was in the attitude of 

Prayer, And without a struggle or a groan. 

As Angels exulting wafted her soul to Heaven 

So her Friends cheerfully consigned 

her body to the Tomb ; 

Confident that thus sown in 

weakness and corruption 

Would be raised at the last day, in 

incurruption, and Glory; 

Through Jesus Christ, our Lord.

which made him the Idol of his \\ ife, 

the Pattern of his Children

The W isdom which counselled Nations, ruled his Home, 

The Tongue which swayed the People, charmed his Fireside, 

The Heart which nerved a state, allured his Household, 

His \\^ido>v and his Children 

could find no consolation in his loss 

save in the humble hope 

that they have given him up to that God 

who is the Father of the Fatherless

No son of South Carolina 

Was ever more cherished by his noble Mother 

Than the subject of this memorial. 

Her honors were heaped upon him in early 

and rapid succession. 

Elected at his majority to her House of Representatives 

He soon became its Speaker; 

And was thence transferred to the responsible 

station of Attorney General. 

When just old enough to claim his seat, 

He was chosen to represent Her 

In the Senate of the Union. 

Having eloquently vindicated her Principles, 

In her moment of extreme peril. 

She entrusted her Honor to his keeping, 

laying upon his shoulders 

the burden of her Government. 

No sooner was the sword sheathed 

than she summoned him to advocate the interest 

of her Agriculture and Commerce. 

In the fulfilment of these trusts 

He sacrificed his Life 

having lived long enough for his own fame : 

having died too soon for his Country's good.

JURIST. ORATOR. STATESMAN. PATRIOT. 

Future times will hardly know how great a life 

This simple stone commemorates, — 

The tradition of his Eloquence, his 

Wisdom and Wit may fade; 

But he lived for ends more durable than fame. 

His eloquence was the protection of the poor and wronged 

His Learning illuminated the principles of Law — 

In the admiration of his Peers, 

In the respect of his People 

In the affection of his Family, 

His was the highest place; 

The just meed 

Of his kindness and forbearance. 

His dignity and simplicity 

His brilliant Genius and his unwearied industry, 

Unawed by Opinion. 

Unseduced by Flattery 

Undismayed by disaster. 

He confronted Life with antique Courage 

And Death with Christian Hope. 



In the great Civil War 

He withstood his People for his Country. 

But his People did homage to the Man 

Who held his conscience higher than their praise; 

And his Country 

Heaped her honours on the grave of the Patriot, 

To whom, living. 

His own righteous self-respect sufficed. 

Alike for Motive and Reward.

He had much to live for

Who died on the 17th. March 1843 

In the Ninetieth year of his age. 

For many years an eminent lav/yer 

In this city, he was not less admired 

For his knowledge which was various 

And profound, than for 

Those qualities of heart and mind 

Which made it honorably & practically useful 

Preferring the calm of retirement 

To the distinction of public life. 

He rather shunned than sought office : 

And was as remarkable for declining. 

As many are, for courting its honors 

But the appointments which he did accept 

Both elevated and responsible. 

Were discharged with learning. 

Ability and fidelity. 

He submitted patiently to the infirmities 

Of age, and died with the resignation 

of a Christian.

Was committed to the earth,

SUSANNAH, who was forty seven years. 

The very amiable and excellent wife 

Of John Julius Pringle Esquire. 

She was born 1 4th, December 1 768 

And died 7th. February 1831. 

She was liberally endowed, 

With the qualities of the head, heart, 

And person, which most adorn and endear 

The loveliest of her Sex; 

These were rendered the more estimable 

By her discreet, moral and pious conduct. 

In her life she was therefore much beloved. 

And at her death much lamented. 

But her afflicted husband and children 

"Sorrowed not as those without hope." 

For they were by this hope consoled. 

That GOD had willed to translate her. 

From this frail and fleeting existence 

To one of everlasting bliss. 

And that by His grace they may so live 

Here, as to be reunited to her hereafter.

of 

MISS ANN F. SIMONTON 

who died on the 1 st. day of Sept. 1 828, 

The South Carolina Society 

Have erected this Tablet. 

Recommendations from the most respectable 
sources of the high attainments of this lady 

induced the Trustees of the Academies 

established by the Society to select her as 

the Principal of the Female department. 

Urged by a pious sense of filial duty 

To contribute to the comfort of an aged mother 

she sought the responsible office, 

and in a short time fulfilled the hopes 

which her reputation had authorised. 

To an energy not inconsistent with the 

character of the softer sex 

She added an urbanity, which tempered 

without impairing her discipline. 

The interesting objects of her care 

acknowledged the justness of her decisions 

whilst they were grateful for the mildness 

with which these were enforced. 

Zealous and cheerful in the discharge 

of her duties, she won the studious application 

of her admiring pupils, whose innocent tears 

consecrate the memory of her Virtues, 

and afford the best illustration 

of her eminent worth.
